Growing up in a small town where all directions include the "stop light" as a reference, I found this story very sensitive and realistic. Depicting the transition from child to young adult. Left me wanting more.
Thank you for your comments...This contest is restricted to 20 pages. I could have written much more, I probably will expand this one into a Novella.
Tell your friends.

The glasses sure did help bring in that great catch. I was impressed with your story. I bet you could have taken it a little farther.
Only gripes I have is Indent your paragraphs, a lot of potential as a writer just get out of those big boxes I feel like I am lost in a block. space paragraphs by one inch to two inches . it mainly depends on publisher , their brains usually gets hung up in first gear but a little grease...

Thanks to all who have read and commented on my work. Your support gives me reason to continue to write.
Thanks again...
It seems we all do stupid things when we are teens and sometimes we don't learn from our mistakes. The gentleness and truth of this story is very warm. It feels as real as if I were there or if it were a boy I know. And the redemption is so rewarding to read.
